Honoring Women

By

          As we celebrate International Womens Day we honor the women of the past and present. We are the grandmothers , mothers , sisters , daughters and granddaughters of  these women. They are the ones who dried our tears , calmed our fears and was always there for us.  These are the women of  our past who sacrificed and  paved the way for todays generation of women and future generations.  These women never gave up. They fought for change and for their beliefs. They were  activists ,coservationists, writers. they  were the trailblazers that became the first female doctors, the first female senators, the first female leaders of countries, They fought for women to be able to vote, they not only worked in the factories when the men went to war  , they also became pilots in the war, They inspire us to have the courage to not let our voices be silenced.  Honor the womenn of yesterday , today and tomorrow by not being afraid to stand up for what you think is important.  Shout from the rooftops, the moutaintops, the valleys and the streets let your voices be heard.  As always be safe and do something nice for somone.

Everybody is unique

By
                  I have talked about this before, but it is important to discuss it again.   It used to be that body image was usually something that affected mostly girls and young women, however more recently we are seeing more boys and young men dealing with it. With more access to social media young people are flooded with images of the perfect body. They believe that they have to look like these people. They are also sometimes confronted with hurtful comments. They can feel like they are unworthy or unloved. This can lead to physical and mental problems. This can also lead to depression and eating disorders. This can also lead to them trying dangerous things to look perfect. This can also lead to long term problems. As someone who has and sometimes still do, deals with body image negativity, we have to break the cycle. We should never compare one to another. Everyone is special and unique. Everyone needs to realize that their ...

Holiday Memories

By
                     As we prepare for the holidays we may be missing loved ones some may no longer be with us, others are separated by the miles. Whatever the reason just because they are not with us physically dose not mean they are not with us , their love will always surround us. As we carry on the traditions of holidays past, We will hold tight to the memories of holidays past spent laughing with them and spending time with them. So remember when we are missing them they will always be in our hearts. So trim the tree and fill the stockings. and as you cook that holiday meal, laugh with those around you as you tell stories of past holidays spent with loved ones. So smile and remember all the good times.

Losing Sight Of Who You Are

By
                       In the chaos of todays world it is easy to lose sight of who you are. Do you look in the mirror and not recognize who you are? I'm not talking about physical appearance. Society tells us that we are are suppose to be a certain type of person and to act a certain way. Society tells us that it is not okay to disappoint anyone,  so sometimes we take on more than we can handle. Society teaches us to never say no or to never help someone even though we just can not handle one more thing, because that would be letting others down. We are expected to be like robots or puppets and not ever show our emotions. We are expected to be perfect. If we ask for help especially mental many times we are judged and criticized, because we are suppose to be strong enough to handle anything. We were not created to be perfect. We all fall down sometimes. We hurt. we get angry, we feel overwhelmed, we even feel lost at times...
